OMAHA, Nebraska (Reuters) -Berkshire Hathaway shareholders mourning the departure of legendary investor Warren Buffett anticipate the conglomerate he built over 60 years will retain its long-term focus and culture but worry about the loss of Buffett's vision and star power.

While Akeso (AKESF) and Summit Therapeutics’ (SMMT) ivonescimab, a rival to Merck’s (MRK) Keytruda, won approval in China this week, the data on patient survival did not meet analyst expectations, Jonathan Wosen of STAT reports. In its submission to regulators, Akeso included data on patient survival, disclosing that an interim analysis following 157 patient deaths found that participants on ivonescimab had a roughly 22% reduced risk of death, with a hazard ratio of 0.784, a company spokesperson
Pipeline companies remain well positioned despite the current disruption in the energy markets. At the same time, demand for natural gas is growing. This is coming from the increased power consumption stemming from artificial intelligence (AI), as well as from export demand from Mexico and for LNG (liquified natural gas) to Asia and Europe.

Shares of lung cancer biotech Summit Therapeutics (NASDAQ: SMMT) rocketed 14.7% on Wednesday as of 1:45 p.m. ET. Summit disclosed some preliminary results of its HARMONi-6 trial, conducted in partnership with Akeso. In the trial, Summit's antibody drug ivonescimab was administered along with platinum-based chemotherapy against the current standard of care, tislelizumab, which is made by BeiGene (NASDAQ: BGNE), in patients with locally advanced or metastatic squamous non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
BioNTech is on the rise after Summit Therapeutics unveiled promising results for its PD-1- and VEGF-blocking drug.
